Leviticus 7:1 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:1

Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass [offering]
Or the various rites and rules to be observed at the offering of it: the persons for whom it was to be made are described in the two preceding chapters, ( Leviticus 5:1-6:30 ) both such that sinned through ignorance, and knowingly, and here the place and parts of the offering, and how to be disposed of, are declared:

Leviticus 7:1 In-Context

1 "'These are the teachings about the penalty offering, which is most holy:
2 The penalty offering must be killed where the whole burnt offering is killed. Then the priest must sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar.
3 He must offer all the fat from the penalty offering -- the fat tail, the fat that covers the inner organs,
4 both kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the best part of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys.
5 The priest must burn all these things on the altar as an offering made by fire to the Lord. It is a penalty offering.
